Hi Jon,My name is Frances McKee and my husband's name is Kreth.I have been trying to find out more about his family history. His gggrandfather was Alexander B. McKee, b.in Kershaw Co. S.C. on Sept. 22, 1798. He died on Oct. 6, 1859 and is buried in Slate Springs, MS.His wife was Isabella H. Vance.They had 13 children as far as I know: James, William, Mary Jane, Sara Ann, Angeline,Nancy, Robert, Henry Harvey(ggrandfather)Marion, Thomas, Martha, and Adaline.I believe but am not sure that Alexander's father was also named Alexander,that he came to this country from Antrim Co. Ireland aboard the Hopewell in 1772.Could your John be a brother to the elder Alexander?Would be interested in hearing from you.Thanks,
Frances
